The main guy, Steve does a pretty decent job for the prices for tattoos however whenever I go in for a piercing he has his trainer of the time (There's been two so far) training do it they did my cartilage which got infected even though I cleaned it multiple times a day, I got my second cartilage done and they were uneven and I also just recently got my septum done, it is uneven she gave me two different sizes of cones on the septum and they spent like five minutes each time they pierced me, trying to jam it through and it hurt so bad. and worst of all the septum is not even. Do not go in here unless you want to simple tattoo. I'm truly a fool for going back Read Less

I Absolutely love Steve's work! I have received 3 tattoos from him and each and every one of them has been touched up for free if needed! Steve guarantees his tattoos for life and fixes any possible inconveniences that may come along. I just got a forward helix and daith done a week ago by one of the piercers. Everything is healing well and I have not ran into any issues. Golden Koi is very affordable for me and I will not be going to any other artist for anything other than to Golden Koi. Thank you guys so much for being awesome! Read Less

Went in for the $10 piercing special. Could not have asked for a nicer experience. Not going to lie, I passed out during the process but they handled it so great and just made the whole experience wonderfully. My new piercing makes me feel super good about myself.
